The Twenty Dollar Bill: Kindle Book of the Day 5/14

Part of what I love about the Kindle is getting to read fascinating stories that I would never get to read otherwise, and Elmore Hammes's The Twenty Dollar Bill is a perfect example. Extremely highly rated and destined to be a classic, this novel gives you a glimpse into the lives of some very interesting characters while they are in possession of the Twenty Dollar Bill. I think probably the best part of the book is that you can really envision all of these people. It's a slice of life story you should take for a spin!

Name: The Twenty Dollar BillRating: 4.8 stars over 17 reviewsPrice: 2.99Description: Follow the path of a twenty dollar bill as it is stolen, given, spent or otherwise passed from person to person, traveling from place to place.

No bombastic explosions, steamy sex scenes, political intrigue or cosmic encounters. Just slices of life from the people you walk by every day - glimpses into how ordinary people interact, how they think, how they feel and how they love.

A contemporary novel exploring every day interactions and relationships.

Reviews: "If you have not read this yet, you should!! It's so inventive and creative. I heard a slight complaint that someone wished they had had more of each person's story, but I think that's what makes this book so great, you get just a snippet of each person's life as they receive and pass on the twenty dollar bill and you have to imagine the ending for them. It's extremely well thought out and well written, I could not put it down. It was like having 20 or so stories all wrapped up in one, but it certainly had a conclusive beginning and end that brought it all together. Great writing!"
